I'm having an issue that prevents Rasplex from fully loading after the initial setup, then subsequent reboot. I've installed Rasplex RC3 using the windows GUI installer to a 64GB MicroSDHC (Class 10?). Everything works perfectly upon the initial run. I go through the initial setup configurization making no changes other than setting up the wifi network. I can watch anything and everything is working fine, but once I reboot I get a list of errors "Failed to create directory..., can't create directory..., can't stat..." then the screen goes black and stays that way. I can't access any logs from this point. Any thoughts? 512.

I've never used an SD card with so much storage space for RasPlex, nor do I know of anyone else who has, so that might actually be part of the problem. There could be a bug in how the code checks for free space, so that an overlarge space is misinterpreted as an insufficiency. (An old problem that has affected many unrelated systems in the past.)

WiFi is an extra complication, and always a handicap (not just for RasPlex), but it should not cause any problems of the kind you got.

Please describe where in the boot sequence this happens. RasPlex has two splash screens, one for the OS and one for the application. Do the error messages occur before both, after both, or in between them.
"Failed to create directory..., can't create directory..., can't stat..."
Each of those messages is consistent with a possible miscalculation of free storage space.

When you say that you can't access any logs from that point, exactly what do you mean ?
Have you tried to use an SSH client (like 'Putty') to log in to use Linux command line interface ? (User=root password=rasplex)
Have you tried accessing the SMB server of RasPlex ? (only works if you enabled it during the first run)
Since you used so unusual SD card size, my first advice to you is to test another card with less storage space.
Even a very large Plex library should work fine with a card of 4 or 8 GB.
The largest SD card I ever used is just 16 GB, and I know that only a tiny fraction of it was really used.

Sorry about the delayed response. You were right. The SD card was the problem. I installed on a 4GB card and everything worked fine. Thanks.
